I don't know Mary. I've got a nice tablet PC loaded with MS Reader, Mobipocket, eReader and Adobe Digital Editions but none of those make me get all warm and fuzzy about curling up with a good book that I have to read on a computer screen. Even when I can rotate my screen to portrait mode. A unit like the Sony Reader, thin, small, light that helps me "escape" from my 9 - 5 day job (where I have to stare at a computer screen all day) or my e-publishing business (which is staring at a computer screen the rest of the time), is what I would like.

They said it was limited by Linux and by it's flash RAM "hard drive" but I was thinking, "boy, it looks a lot lighter to carry around than my laptop."Passing ebook readers by.dej----------------------------------------------------------Learn to use Google Analytics to make your web site more effective.Buy my book! http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/047017501X/----------------------------------------------------------"I loathe writing.
